Maik Loewen is at the forefront of talented artists emerging from Cologne and his new EP Even If You Sleep captivates with straight dancefloor functionality charged with many elaborate, subtle details and brilliant, groovy sounds. These three tracks nicely explore different nuances of Loewen's sound. The funky and uplifting "Napping At The Switch" spreads a positive energetic vibe, while "Bright Night" comes in a darker vein, before the nerdy "Night Shift" rounds it all off.
